Granderson, Cano take home Silver Slugger Awards
ByVia Chad Jennings and Enrique Rojas, Curtis Granderson and Robinson Cano have won AL Silver Slugger Awards at their respective positions. The winners are being announced live on MLB Network right now, but the list is being updated at MLB.com. Congrats to both of these guys, they were well deserving of the awards given their offensive dominance in 2011.





There’s not nearly enough Red Sox players on that list.
Also, how the heck did the Cardinals get shut out on the NL side? They had the best offense in the NL this past season. They lead the league as a team in nearly every offensive category.
Alex Gordon should win a Silver Slugger because the managers and coaches think he’s the best defensive left fielder in baseball.

Nunez deserves a Silver Slugger not for his offense, but his defense.
